Screen reading software and Section 508

Hi All,
Does anyone know of a web site that documents the compatibility of various
assistive technology (AT)programs (including screen readers) with different
browsers, the section 508, WAI, and/or HTML standards?
One of my favorite sites is Index dot HTML/Index dot CSS
(http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/). I was hoping there was a resource
like this to compare AT with the standards.
The biggest question I have about AT compatibility is with data table
markup. Do any AT programs read the id/header or scope attributes
correctly?
Thanks in advance,
Joel
